3 words, genuine, authentic, real.

I'm going to write this review the only way I can, honestly and thorough. The experience of staying with Charlie and Raewyn was great, no, not great, absolutely kickass. I couldn't have asked for more gracious or helpful guest. This is what truly makes airbnb awesome. I think this is a perfect example.

As someone who travels a lot, I've stayed in everything from 5 star hotels to some of my favorite hostels. The thing with Charlie and Raewyn's place is that it is real. Like real in the sense that it's in a actual Thai neighborhood. It's not in the downtown party district and does take a bit to get to downtown if that's your thing. I'm perfectly ok with this. What I wanted was a place to stay comfortable and peaceful. This was exactly that.

In most big cities with public transportation, being on the outskirts of town isn't a bad thing. With tons of information in your room via a nice welcome package to one-on-one chats, within the first day I was hoping on buses, taxis, subways and above ground transport.

Now in regards to the property, what can you say. Absolutely beautiful, big and peaceful. You might not think so coming down back streets and little alleys but trust me, it rocks.
